But we'll welcome former Tories Jonathan Gullis, Danny Kruger, Lee Anderson, Nadine Dorries, Ann Widdecombe, Lucy Allen, Jake Berry - the former chair of the Tories, for God's sake - Andrea Jenkyns, Maria Caufield, Lia Nici ... 20 of them so far.
They should never be forgiven. Except those ones.

It’s clear to anyone paying attention that Farage won’t investigate the Russian infiltration of Reform.
The Prime Minister must step up and launch a national investigation.

Oh FFS just stop. It’s not an election year. Why give him so much space? If only you could spare the same effort for Lib Dems and Greens if you wanted alternative perspectives. Why always with the racist misogynist?

Since the May elections Reform UK Ltd has lost (resigned, fired, left the party) 36 councillors at least.
At an average cost of £25,000 per by-election that means they have cost the country £900,000
What a waste of money, how many schoolmeals would that buy for hungry children?

No real surprise here. But what will the UK Government actually DO about this? X algorithms are right-wing biased. X pushes more right-wing content to users than left-wing content.
A magnificent piece of work. Comprehesive, revelatory & shocking. Journalism this good is always rare & precious but never moreso than at times like this. Latter day Lord Haw Haws being plumped, preened & delivered to your doorstep in plain sight by a Nazi-saluting goon

Farage's judgement is less than just questionable.
Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm. Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.

Erroneous prisoner releases are “extremely rare” according to BBC News. Six or seven such errors a month does not mean “rare”, it means continuous incompetence.

Looks as if Trump is saying no Democrat will be allowed to win another national election—and he will use the FBI, the DOJ, and the CIA to make sure of that. This is a full-scale attack on American democracy, and every Republican, CEO, and conservative mouthpiece who doesn't object is complicit.
Trump: "We can never let what happened in the 2020 election happen again. We just can't let that happen. I know Kash is working on it, everybody is working on it. And certainly Tulsi is working on it. We can't let that happen again to our country."

BREAKING: Equinor has admitted that the massive Rosebank oil and gas field in the UK would cause vast climate damage.

The UK government must STOP Rosebank, and instead focus on creating jobs in North Sea renewables!
